For an observer standing on the ground with h = 2 meters (6 ft 7 in), the horizon is at a distance of 5 kilometers (3.1 mi).

The Earth curves about 8 inches per mile. As a result, on a flat surface with your eyes 5 feet or so off the ground, the farthest edge that you can see is about 3 miles away

Humans can see from 380–740 nanometers (nm)

So, the answer is no, if you can only barely see 3 miles away, then you wouldn't be able to read the name of a boat 3.1 miles away.

A friend of yours was asked to be a research participant for a study investigating the effect of a pain reliever on muscle tears
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

informed consent

Explanation:

According to my research on experiment legal procedures, I can say that based on the information provided within the question all studies involving human subjects must include informed consent. This term is defined as permission granted in full knowledge of the possible consequences. If a researcher does not have this, then the researcher cannot legally use the subject for his studies, since in the eyes of the law it may be considered torture or kidnapping since you do not have proof of the subjects consent.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.
